Gift guide - 10 gifts to stand out this year

The holidays are fast-approaching and with them, the excitement and anguish associated with finding the perfect gift for that special someone! Here is a list of items featuring my work, that are sure to bring smiles to your holidays, and make your gifts stand out. This weekend is #ShopSmall, an initiative encouraging people to shop local and support small businesses. There is something very uplifting about buying and gifting unique products developed by your local creative community... And thanks to your continued support, this year I have been able to photograph over 500 dogs in shelters for free! I am beyond grateful and will continue to use my voice and art to promote animal adoption and a fairer treatment of all beings.
Have wonderful holidays!
Much Love,
Sophie

2. Flower Power 2016 Calendar

Flower Power features pit bulls from shelters wearing flower crowns. I don't think it gets better than that, do you? Most of these dogs have been adopted, but some of the models from the calendar are still hoping for a home to call their own. The calendar helps me fund the project and partial proceeds benefit rescue groups. $30 online only. Get 20% off from Nov 25 - Dec 01. International shipping available.


3. A Flower Power scarf

I have created a small selection of scarves featuring some of my most memorable Flower Power portraits. These scarves are gorgeous, and feel very luxurious. I wear them all the time and get compliments everywhere I go! A perfect gift for the trendy girl, or even a lady. Once the scarf is wrapped around you, all you see are the beautiful colors and tones. Unwrap to reveal the glorious portrait! You can also wear it by the pool!
